The ACC meets the SEC here in the 2nd round of the NCAA tournament. Back before conference play, Clemson beat both SEC opponents, winning over Florida 71-69 and South Carolina, 64-48. Clemson opened NCAA play with a win over New Mexico State, 79-68 and have now covered three straight games. Auburn lost in their SEC tourney opener to Alabama, 63-81. Auburn did open NCAA play with a win over College of Charleston, 62-58, but did not cover the 9.5 point line. In fact, the Tigers have lost five straight to the number and six of the last seven. My numbers clearly show Clemson should be the favorite here, both in recent form and overall. On paper, these teams evenly matched, but I like Clemson to come out on top. Play Clemson.

NCAA 2nd round action has Syracuse taking on Michigan State. Syracuse lost in the 2nd round of the ACC tournament to North Carolina, 59-78. The Orangemen by virtue of their 22 wins in a tough conference go the NCAA invite and have won two straight. They opened with a win over Arizona State, 60-56 and then beat TCU, 57-52. Now they face 30 win Michigan State. Michigan State lost in their Big 10 tournament to Michigan, 64-75. The Spartans opened NCAA tourney play with a win over Bucknell, 82-78. The Spartans are 0-4 ATS in their last four games and 2-9-2 ATS in their last 13 games. Spartans not a big scoring team, though they did put up 82 vs Bucknell. They only scored 64, 63 and 68 in their three previous games. That's not a good sign for a team laying 9.5 points here today. That lack of scoring is a big reason the Spartans have only two covers in their last 13 games. My recent form number has this game even with my highest number on Michigan State around seven. I think this line is too high for a Spartans team that has issues scoring big numbers to cover big spreads. Take Syracuse.
